delivered the memorial address, and was
followed by ev-Gov. Pingree OF Vermont.
The following letter from President Cleve-

I have to-day received an invitation on
behalf OF the Sedgwicl memo rial associa-
ton, to attend on the 10Th OF Nav next
the dedication OF q monument which shall
mark the spot where Mai Gen.
Seagwick was killed. The patriotic senti-
ment and devotion which erects among the
busy throngs OF life imposing monuments
in memory OF those who died in battle,
supplies proof OF that love and apprecia.
ton OF our soldier dead which is deeply in
terwoyen as a part OF our national life
But when the ground is 4 marked
and set apart where, in valorous fights
the blood was shed and the sacrifice
OF life was made which preserved us
a nation-a holy shrine is erected, where
all who love their country may devoutly
worship. Elaborate shafts OF marble fit
tingly remind us OF our soldier dead. and
OF their bravery and patriotism, but the
touching service your ass ISOLATION contem-
plates, shall chasten all our thoughts of
them, by pointing out nsacred ground the
spot where blood was bravely shed and
life was patriotically offered up, with
thanks to the association for their remem-.
brance at this time, and regretting that
official dnties will prevent my acceptance
OF the invitation rendered me.

It is stated that more than two
thirds OF the members of the Ameri.
can Congress are lawyers, good, bad
and Indifferent, while in the British
parliament it is not the lawyers that
are in the majority, and mold it's &C.
ton, but the landed and commercial
interest, with strong mixture OF
younger sons trained to q career in
politics. In the German Reichstag,
composed OF 398 members, only ten

ent composed OF SO members OF the
landed interest, 81 public officials, II
merchants and manufacturers, SO pro-
fessional men, including 18 cle1gymen,

yers and s physicians. The absence
OF a controlling legal and technical in
fuence probably accounts for the sim
plicity and directness Of Germanlaws.

The Baltimore Manufacturers Rec
ord points out that there is nothing
more needed by the growing towns in
the South than good newspapers and
hotels; and declares that in whatever
town these are to be found it is safe
to say that there is energy, activity
and progress. To secure capital and
immigration both are necessary. a
newspaper, therefore, that will point
out the advantages OF town, and a
hotel that will make the visitor COM
Portable and give him a favorablevi view
of life, are essential to the prosperity
OF any town needing capital, immigra.
ton and enter prise to utilize and de-
vslop the advantages with which ma.
ture has blessed 1t. Everybody ia
prepared TO ackno wledge the benefits
of the newspaper, but the good hotel
is quite as essential; but in the latter,
many towns are sadly deficient, and
thereby lose the prestige to which they
are justly entitled by reason Of other
substantial advantages they may pos
sess.

Villages Destroyed by EARTHQUAKES.

The earthquake Tuesday, May Sd, created
sad havoc in the northwestern portion OF
Sonora, Mexico. A dispatch says: The
earthquake caused terrible damages to
Montezuma and destroyed several
villages, but those in the north
western part suffered the most
terribly. Optu had all it's houses de-
stroyed, and Bahispe was utterly destroy
ed, $50 people being killed. The houses
were leveled to theground A new volcano
appeared, and it's eruption destroyed all
timber patches OF adjoining valleys and
mountains. Further details are expected
hourly. The volcano mentioned in this
dispatch is in the famous Sierra Madre
mountains.
The government recently received it's
first Information OF the effects of the re-
cent earthquake at Bahispe Sonora, by
which $50 people lost their lives. The
earthquake occurred on the 7th inst, at
p. mat the same time the volcanic
eruptions began in the neighboring noun
tains, lighting up the SUBMITS for a long
distance. The prediction is made by local
scientists that Mexico is about to undergo
a general seismic convulsion, and recent
records OF earthquake shocks show the IN
there is widespread volcanic activity from
one end OF Mexico to the other.

Wisconsin Commissioners st Gettysburg.

Wisconsin Commissioners ct Gettysburg.
The Wisconsin Gettysburg monuments
commissioners have made their officia Visit
to the famous Pennsylvania battlefield.
There were three commissioners represent
ing each Wisconsin regiment which partic.
ipated in the BATTLE Gov. Rusk
was greatly interested in the scene
OF the famous fight. He reports
that the association, which, under a char
ter granted by the state OF Pennsylvania,
controls the grounds, own the title to
about 800 acres OF land altogether. The
entire battle Of Gettysburg was fought
over many miles OF territory, but
the association has secured a strip
about 100 feet wide, which marks the
various regimental battle lines. These
strips are to be converted into shaded
boulevards, with monuments at the sides.
Several OF the states already have their
monuments erected, and occasionally one
may be seen set OFF in some farmers field,
quite distance from the avenues.
The Wisconsin commissioners have Sc
lected an executive com mittee to consist
OF one representative OF each regiment
which is empowered after each regiment
has selected the kind of Wisconsin granite
to be used and the plan OF the monuments
Ito let the contracts for the construction
OF the monuments and also for their cree.
tion on the battlefield.

Maine is still suffering from floods.
These have inflicted more damage
than has occurred from a similar
cause in that state in years. Mill
dams and buildings have been swept
away, villages and portions of cities
inundated, railways rendered impas.
sable, and the transportation business
has been greatly interrupted. When
the vast amount of snow which con.
fronted us this spring is considered, it
is surprising that freshets have not
done far more mischief throughout
the country than has been reported.

In New York, marriage is not, by
law, a sacrament, nor does it require
any religious or other ceremony, or
the interference OF any third party to
make it valid. A contract of mar
riage between man and woman who
are free to make such an engagement
is all that is legally required. If both
parties admit the contract no witness
is required. If either denies the agree.
ment, then witness, or some con-
frmatory evidence is necessary to es.

The Old keystone Ready for War

A special from Harrisburg, Pa. says:
Gov. Beaver formally opened the expo.
sition OF the City Grays at the armory OF
the company last evening in the presence
OF several thousand people. In speaking
OF the utility OF the national guard, the
governor said that little over a month
ago it looked to those in authority very
much as if the service of the more
than eight thousand disciplined men would
soon be needed. Inquiry had come from
Washington as to the time that would be
required to concentrate Pensylvania's
troops at Lake Erie in case OF trouble with
England in regard to the fisheries dispute.
The reply was sent back that twenty-four
hours would be all that would be necessary
to concentrate the troops at the lake or
any point on the border OF the state, Gov.
Beaver added that, happily, the prospect
i've emergency had passed and that is
why he had mentioned the matter
